Pros

Very good place to train.

Cons

Biggest competition is internal with other divisions. Management predominantly come from the Office Team and Accountemps divisions because people there make more money for their skill set than other divisions, so they stay. But to have someone straight out of school whose only experience is in RHI managing people with close to 20 years of managmenet experience is a joke.

Pros

If you want to be thrown to the lions then this job is for you.

Cons

Unrealistic goals, unprofessional coworkers, no room for creativity or innovation. If you have your own style of sales that isn't Robert Half's then you are as good as gone. This place was a machine. You must make overly aggressive goals of 65 calls a day when you first start. This does not allow for you to call someone and build rapport with them and ultimately win their business. If you take more than 10min on a call then you won't have time to meet the rest of the day's goals and will get admonished by your manager and considered a low performer. Very few clients will want to talk to you due to the insane amount of calls they've received from your predecessors. I called hundreds of leads and very few wanted to work with Robert Half based on the overly aggressive non personal way the sales reps had treated them.

Pros

RHI rewards hardwork, and recognizes people as their best asset. For those who are able to deliver, there are clear career opportunities. Additionally, RHI continues to invest in employee development, and continues to provide new tools to support employees. The company has been in business for 60 years and the leaders in place have led us through economic downturns in the past. Employees are confident in the managment teams ability to lead us during challenging times, and to act with integrity which is something we are proud of. Additionally, RHI has been very communicative with employees about the current situtation/environment which is appreciated.

Cons

RHI has made adjustments over the past year to add benefits, that employees have requested for several years, to the benefits package. However, the one area that is still a work in progress is adjustments to pay rates/salaries. Once you are in the organization and have been in a position for a while, it can be difficult to get your salary aligned with the current market value. In the current market it is understandable that adjustments may not be made, however this is an area that the organization should seriously revisit and address in order to ensure they are able to retain their best staff.
